Overnight
I just spoke with Billy about how Mac's night went. I went home yesterday to get some rest and spend some time with Liam. Mac was stable overnight and surprised everyone with his ability to follow commands under sedation. He was even able to communicate to Billy when he had to go to the bathroom! His brain is telling his kidneys he has too much sodium so his body is not producing enough at this time but they are giving him supplements. They seem to have gotten his temperature under control and did not suffer any new seizures. The plan for today is to remove the breathing tube and bring him out of sedation. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing here on out!
